The only well known Christian left winger I can think of is Chris Hedges. I think Christianity is inherently a left wing religion, yet in America the Right has basically taken over it.
I have several friends who are Christians and vote for Democrats.
This is the case. They behave like traditional Christians and practice their religion on a daily basis without the need to force it down other people's throats. For them it's more about the teachings of Christ, than dominance.
Are you trying to challenge Wilson for the most juvenile post of the day?

Is this what Pelosi was doing while washing feet of illegals......forcing health care upon all of us without reading the WHOLE bill? Feinstein doesn't care if she destroys the whole world, as long as she (1 person) gets her way!
One thing I do know, liberals enjoy breaking the "laws of the land" and help people outside of America more than Americans.

Today it sure is. Lets look at facts here associated with liberalism.....
Pro drugs and pot
Pro Gay
Pro Choice
Progressive
Anti Constitution and Socialism or Dictator tendencies
Contempt and hatred towards law enforcement and the military
Need I go on?!>>>>>
Ask yourself what Christ would have thought about those issues.
Jesus was a wine drinking rabble-rouser who was considered dangerously progressive in his day. He advocated that people love one another without judgment. Remember "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"? I see no evidence that Jesus loved the warmongers (that's a right wing trait) or that he had any great love for the entrenched authority of his day.
Yes, it is absolutely possible to believe the basic messages of Christianity as relayed by Christ and be a Democrat. Seems like it is actually easier for the left because they don't have to twist all those principles to fit into their rightwing dogma.
Perhaps someday the fundamentalist Christians will actually decide to follow Christ, too. That would be refreshing.

Pretty funny, you believe your god cares more about people within borders which were only defined within the past 100 years or so.

When will the progressives from both sides follow American ways and not those of illegals?????
I really don't see Christ in politics, only when they use Christ poorly as an example......after all He cleared the temple!
How can President Obama compare Joseph and Mary to illegals who don'y pay taxes or hospital bills. Was Obama saying, Jesus was a mooch?
